Truly don't know whether to scream or cry..

I think my running shoes are on and I think one is untied! I told my husband tonite (yes I finally built up the balls to tell him how scared I am). And anger raged when I realized I know how much he tries to understand and he just doesn't get it. We were sitting here watching "Intervention" and he just shook his head. He isn't an asshole and I hope I don't make him out to sound like he is. I try so freaking hard to be open and honest which I am. I just want to CRY!!! We have SO many changes before us and I am scared shitless. I am going to start packing tomorrow so it's at least organized and then live in shambles for a few months. My heart is all over the place tonite. Seriously, all I want to do is cry! ......................UGH WTF???

I'm a big advocate of a good cry. Then when you're all cried out you could look at your anger and try to turn it into acceptance. Being angry that he doesn't &quot;get it&quot; is perfectly natural, but will only keep you chasing your tail. He may never &quot;get it&quot;. Change is hard, I think especially for us who have ED's. Even change for the better is hard for me. Like &quot;oh no, something better, aaaahhhh!!&quot; Trust that it will be OK. Big hug. xo

Let it out, sister! You're ALLOWED to cry, hun. And I know (like, seriously) how it feels like to have your hubby just &quot;not get it.&quot; In fact, shoot, I just wrote a journal about it. It's so frustrating to feel &quot;alone&quot; but remember we're all here for you, and WE get it! We might not have gone through the same things as you have, but we understand the frustration of loved ones just not &quot;getting it.&quot;

I love ya bunches. You hang in there- you're doing the very best thing you can! And that is ALL ANYONE CAN ASK FOR!

Oh, and dude, after having a few friends I was in treatment with who were on Intervention, I cannot even HEAR or SEE the PREVIEWS without getting teared up and upset. I know what they went through because I've heard the &quot;real&quot; story, you know?

Oh maaaaan...and then there's other stuff too that is associated with that show too. Oh man...

Seriously, all I wanted to do was tell him to drop my ass off at the hospital.(Before anyone asks last time we tried that they shooed me away-fuckers) I wrote all of this when I was sitting here and thinking... and don't know how I am going to deal w/ him not being around for months at a time. I truly hope I can rely on people on here for support. My husband understands ED and has looked up sooooo much information and it pains him when I get sick (unintentionally) and when I fess up to what I did or did not eat. He trys so freaking hard and buys me food.... that half the time goes to waste. This is one of those times I turn to myself and just hate who I've become. How is he going to be able to do his job when he is worried about me and can't sleep at night? When we move and I know NO ONE!!!! URGH.... ok, her come the tears Gabrador!

Lily... we'll talk about that later
Yazz.... he gets it, it just keeps him up at night when I am all alone and I don't answer the phone. We had 7 police at our complex the other night and he came home to make sure I was ok.

This sounds really like a tough one. Your husband is supportive and understands mostly what's going on but I guess he's afraid to take that last piece of action. I agree with everybody that you need to cry and scream to let it out but that's not enough. The most courageous thing to do would be to say: you know hon, I'm at the end and I need you to take me to the hospital before I die from this. I might scream and fight but I really need someone to take over and think straight for me.
You are in my prayers.

I love you sissii! Yes, it is HEAD UP AND TOES ON THE GROUND... always our phrase. We will get you through this, hand in hand sisi, we can get through anything together, I promise you!! I love you with all my heart! BIG F'N HUG from you pain in the ass little sister! (P.S where the fuck are you I miss you)

Sis just picked my ass up off the floor!!!! God been down for awhile!!! I can't believe how much I have rubbed off on you! God, have I corrupted you? I will repeat myself all the shit I have told you &quot;HEAD UP AND TOES TO THE GROUND&quot; oh yeah and I said the &quot;HAND IN HAND&quot; to you you little poop! And I don't sensor my wording, It's a HUGE FUCKING HUG back at you you pain in my ass! I love ya. Been a shit night, want to leave DS, hate ignorance..................urgh. You know how to get ahold of me. Sick of people telling me what they think they know and that they know me and they don't. Hey it's 4:30am, you think my ass should sleep at some point? MUCHO LOVE

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
